Children under 10 years of age need 2 doses of H1N1 flu vaccine, separated by a month or 4 weeks.

Influenza vaccine is available from doctors, county health departments, and many other locations. To find a site near you visit the American Lung Association Flu Clinic Locator.

Influenza takes a big toll on young children. Each year in the United States, an average of 20,000 children younger than 5 are hospitalized because of flu-related complications. As many as 1 in 5 children under age 5 may have to see the doctor, visit the ER or other urgent care for treatment for flu. And tragically, around 100 children die from this serious disease each year.

Q: Where can I get immunizations for my child?
A: Contact your regular doctor. If you don't have a doctor call your local county health department. Information on how to contact your county health department may be found here.

Oklahoma now ranks 39th in the nation with 73.6% of children ages 19 months through 2 years of age fully immunized against diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, measles, mumps, rubella, polio, Hib, and hepatitis B.
